Muzzy zero effect...HELP????
i have installed the zero effect on my mq32 per the instructions and the video. it all seems to be in working order, but i have a problem...
when i shoot, depending on the nock orientation, i have either 1 or 2 of my feathers (standard 4" feathers) hitting the cable/string????
from what i can tell, the cable slide with the ze allows the string/cable to be further away from the cable guide and closer to my arrow path than the original cable slide that came with the bow.
any help would be greatly appreciated...
thanks
John

When your arrow is nocked it should be sitting on the shelf of the riser. Not the capture arm. When at full draw the fletch will be back by your anchor point behind the cables. Are you saying you see wear on your fletching? Is your centershot set correctly?

nub
when the arrow is nocked, it does sit on the shelf of the riser....and at full draw the fletch is behind the cables (as with any other rest).
the feathers are getting beat up and the cable/string are the closest thing to the feathers on that side of the arrow. i set the centershot like my instructions said (slightly pointed out)
...confused on what to try next

Next question, have you tuned or had the bow tuned properly?
I ask this because I had a problem with an MQ1 about 6 months ago. The arrow tuned properly but was too far into the riser. Final solution was to "time" the cam. The arrow moved out to the proper position and everything else was fine.

Mopar: If you rotated your cock out, I'd shoot through some paper. Sounds to me like its just eyeballed. Paper tuning is an easy way for you to see whats up. If anyone here knows how to tune a Muzzy, its Len. Does the mq32 have the allinement holes in the cam to check rotation? Check all your specs against the manufacturers.

RE: Muzzy zero effect...HELP????
thanks guys for the help.
i needed to put some twists in the string to get the holes in the cam to line up correctly again. it seemed to do the trick.
it took me about 2 minutes to shoot bullet holes in the paper. (compared to my last rest this was a dream)
..gained about 3 fps (not that speed is one of my goals, just checked for curiosity sake)
..think im going to like this thing...
